Motorsport Festival at the Salzburgring in the starting blocks

Drexler-Automotive Formula Cup

Under the direction of the Austrian-German organizer duo Rene Binna and Christoph Gerlach, the motorsport festival will start on the Salzburgring on 11-12 July. It is the first event of its kind after the lockdown at the gates of the Mozart city. In addition, the circuit racing season in Austria is now also starting, with a delay. All the more reason for all teams and drivers to be really looking forward to the event. For the Drexler Formula Cup with Formula 3, Formula Renault and Formula 4 the waiting is over: "We are happy that it finally starts", says coordinator Franz Wöss. The motor sport festival has a lot of circuit sport in the program at the Salzburgring. The Touring Car Classics will be part of the programme with a variety of racing cars from the "Golden Era" of DTM and STW, some of which are still driven by stars of the 80s and 90s themselves. The Suzuki Swift Cup Europe is really exciting. In this one-make cup especially many drivers from Austria will come to their first motorsport event this year. This also applies to the Pfister-Racing Touring Car Challenge. From the 50s and 60s the cars of the Dunlop A Gentle Drivers Trophy can be admired. The organizer has made a strong commitment to the premiere of a new event format. Numerous discussions with the local authorities preceded the engagement in order to be able to finally give the starting signal for the motorsport festival. However, the fans are not allowed to be on site this year. The Corona restrictions must still be implemented. For this reason the organizer offers a livestream, which will show all race series at the Salzburgring. "Via the livestream the fans will get a first impression and hopefully whet their appetite for the continuation of the new event format", says Rene Binna.
